Music can be the great equalizer. When you go to a Music festival, such as the annual Walnut Valley Music Festival where one may camp & jam for 10 days & nights, most folks are dressed as campers. Some of the "paid performers" may have special "polyestery" stage attire, then don their grubbies & head for the campgrounds & the jams. Campin' & Jammin' can cause those who see only the clothing of the person to be taken aback. Those seedy looking folks over there playing those old, worn out instruments can rip the strings right off your fancy new Taylors & Deerings. Sometimes the seediest looking feller sleeping in an old, worn out tent is some guy from the hoity toity corporate world who goes to spend one week & a half of his year remembering what it's like to be where the only thing that matters is the Music.
